Hibiscus Jerry 洛神花啫喱

Hibiscus season is here! But I can’t buy the fresh hibiscus where I live, so I used dried hibiscus instead. Actually they are as good as the fresh one, and easier to keep it for longer time. 

Hibiscus has many benefit, sour and taste refreshing. Beside making a drink, I love to make dessert with it. This time, I make very simple broken glass jelly, not with many different colour but just with hibiscus. They look so pretty and super yummy! Hope you like it too!

Very popular Hong Kong dessert  – Mango Pomelo Sago Pudding, I am not sure if it called pudding, as it is not pudding, but it also thicker than soup…anyway, it is a very delicious dessert. 

It made of mango puree, coconut cream, evaporated milk (that you can use milk instead, but it tastes different) and then add some mango chunks and pomelo. It is kind of healthy dessert, and super easy to make. Try and hope you will love it!
